Hey all, I'm hoping this is the right comm for this kind of post. I'm really interested what brought my fellow lemmings to anarchism (or just radical politics in general). Was is a youtube video? A book? A conversation IRL or on the internet? For me personally it was a friend IRL who introduced me to an local anarchist collective.

It's pretty simple really; we're all people. We're all equal. Nobody is greater or lesser than anyone else. And we've created a "society" that runs completely antithetical to that idea.

Reading Edward Abbey at a young age didn't hurt, either.
